The content on all the communities seem different.

Why didn’t the “copycats” get the “this community name has already been taken” message?

It was bad enough at The Other Place finding one overlooked sub about one of your interests.

Now you have to find every single community in every single instance if you hope to talk about your topic?

I mean, look at this:

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world

No Stupid Questions@kbin.social

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca

No Stupid Questions@mander.xyz

    I still go back and forth. I use Red Reader, a third party app that still works. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, especially if there are niche communities that are really important to you.

    Honestly though, every day the content on Reddit gets worse and more repetitive and the general atmosphere gets more sour. We’ll see how things pan out, but imo the vibe on Lemmy is more pleasant atm.

      i think i’m lucky in that all of my niche subs were porn adjacent, so i need them like i need another hole in my head.

      still, i find myself visiting reddit too, but without the ability to log in to limit my interaction with them.
